Help Apollo Fight Lymphoma
Donation protected
Apollo is a 4 year old Great Dane fighting multicentric Stage 3 large-grade canine lymphoma.
Melanie and Albert Demi, who adopted Apollo when he was 8 weeks old, received the hard news this week that their beloved Great Dane has lymphoma. Following a trip to Colorado, Melanie noticed Apollo's lymph nodes were swollen and immediately knew something was wrong. She brought him to see their vet and, after a couple days of appointments, imaging, and tissue samples, the diagnosis was confirmed.
Unfortunately, this type of cancer is particularly aggressive and progressive. Apollo will require aggressive chemotherapy that has already started. Beyond that, he will start a special diet and take herbal supplements to ensure his body has the best tools to fight the cancer.
Apollo is the sweetest pup and truly a gentle giant. Everyone who meets him has nothing but praise for his great manners and loving disposition. His floppy grin and kind eyes can make anyone smile.
Our goal is to raise $10,000 to cover the costs of treatment, appointments, and other needs. With the holiday season approaching, any donation would be incredibly appreciated. If you can't donate, you can help by sharing our page and getting the word out. Let's show Melanie, Albert, and Apollo that they are loved and supported by relieving their burden as much as possible.
Breakdown of costs so far:
Initial oncologist visit: $250
Ultrasound and x-rays: $450
Cytology: $400
Chemotherapy: $8,500 for the first 19-week protocol
Herbal supplements: $250
Food: $600 per month
